Chapter 732: Human success and failure

Born in the same place, anyone who has the ability and opportunity, no matter how cold they are, will think about doing something good for their hometown. This is the hometown feelings.

   Xie Ai is not a cold-hearted person. He didn't have the battle of fame in Xiliang in this historical version, and naturally there is no legend of "Confucian will hit Mahu in white".

   In fact, Xie Ai is not well-known in history, just like those who fought against the Husbands during the Five Husbands, they did not get the respect that contemporary people deserve.

If history has not been changed, Xie Ai was born as a Confucian student and became a general of Zhang’s Liang State. Small battles are not counted. In three major battles, the army that defeated Shi Jie and Zhao’s country died in Zhang. The "Xie Ai Ji" left by the civil strife in the Liang Kingdom. This book was still alive until the early years of the Tang Dynasty, and it was recorded by Wei Zheng when he compiled "Sui Shu. Jing Ji Zhi".

In this historical version changed by Liu Yan, Xie Ai’s battle of fame is to chase the North in the grassland, chase down a small number of Jie people who fled, fought a thousand miles to invade the Tuoba Dai Kingdom, and fought Rouran on the grassland. Victorious.

At least in the current era, Zhu Xia still attaches great importance to foreign military exploits. People still admire the people who dared to go deep into the grassroots soldiers. Especially the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which held the right to record the history, was destroyed. Those who fought against the Hu people and martyrs were not affected. Deliberately suppress or erase.

   The small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty eliminated and suppressed the heroes who fought against the Hu people because of the cowardice of the small court. They had no face to explain to the posterity about what they did, and could only ignore or even hostile some people who really did great things. Not to mention the successive elimination and suppression of the small imperial court, such as Zuti’s Northern Expedition, Yu Liang’s Northern Expedition, and even Ran Min’s invitation to the Jin army to go north after the Yecheng uprising. Instead, he used the status of "Zhengshuo" to declare who can Eliminate Ran Min will get a reward.

Only the victor is qualified to write history is the law. Too many people who have really done the facts for the nation did not get the historical status they should have, only because those people stood on the losing side in the subsequent civil wars. What they did No matter how good it is, it is basically denied, unless it is not compatible with the new dynasty, otherwise it will not get the historical evaluation that it deserves.

Obvious examples have also occurred in contemporary times. The Han country under Liu Yan's rule is also eliminating the influence of the Zhang family in Xiliang. For example, ignoring the Zhang family is actually sheltering a considerable number of Han people and has been fighting against the Hulu, everything is For the starting point of the justice of governance.

   Things that can’t be helped, once the Zhang’s correctness and greatness are promoted, will Liu Yan, who wiped out the Zhang’s, become a villain? People in the Northwest will miss the Zhang family even more, which will hinder Han's rule of the Northwest. That can only be a deliberate ignorance, not to discredit, even if it is a little conscience.

   When the Zhang clan ruled the Northwest, he couldn't say how good he did it. At least it guaranteed that the vast majority of people had an environment where they could settle down. However, Zhang’s Liang Kingdom had the same problems as the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The power of aristocratic families was infinite, and most of the social resources were in the hands of a few aristocratic families and wealthy families. Instead, they were the vast majority of ordinary people. No matter how hard you try, you can't make yourself a little better.

   Even if that is the case, but only to be sheltered, not to let themselves be abused by Husbands like their kinsmen in the Central Plains, people in the northwest are grateful to the Zhang family. Therefore, the contrast can make people see the reality more clearly, but the people in the Northwest are grateful to the Zhang family, which is actually detrimental to Han's rule of the Northwest.

   Xie Aiyou served as an official in Zhang's Liang Country, but it cannot be said that he was excavated. The reason why he was able to be an official was a kind of continuation of family politics. Later, he became Liu Yan's minister after negotiations between Han and Zhang's Liangguo. There was no betrayal in the change of identity, and there was no moral loss.

   As long as a person has a realistic or commercial side, it's just that the performance is not obvious. Nowadays, the person in the Northwest who can know it is Xie Ai.

   Before Zhang Liangguo was not destroyed, although Xie Ai's official definition of Zhang Liangguo was not a traitor, there was really not much positive affirmation, and it would even be maliciously discredited.

  Waiting for Zhang's Liang Country to be destroyed, even if the Northwesterners are no longer willing to raise Xie Ai, it is to show that there are at least people in the Northwest who can be on the table, and I hope Xie Ai can take care of the Northwest.

Regardless of whether it is active or passive, as long as it is from that place, it means that no matter how maliciously the people in the hometown have treated someone, when someone develops and has the ability, but does not take care of the hometown, the person’s reputation is definitely not good. Where to go.

   Obviously, people don’t care how they have treated someone in their hometown, they just feel that they don’t even take care of someone in their hometown when they have the opportunity. How can they expect to have any benefit of following someone.

   Xie Ai appeared in the northwest. As soon as the news came out, not only Xie’s former friends left for Rile, but also some people who felt that they had some face.

Those people who look for Xie Ai may not have a very special purpose. They may only pay a courtesy and respectful visit, but it is actually out of a kind of village party sentiment that has existed since ancient times. They want to find a smooth road here. , To participate in the ruling class of Han.

   Xie Ai is a native of Dunhuang County. It is a thousand miles away from Dunhuang to Zhangye. When he waited for them to reach Rile County, Xie Ai was actually no longer there.

   "Xinting Hou Duan did not deliberately avoid me." Xie Ping is also the Xie family of Dunhuang, but he is not a side branch of Xie Ai's five clothes, or he should have moved to Liu Yan early. Even if he is a side branch, he has a very high status in the eyes of some people, and said with restraint: "Lord, wait a moment, please ask the county government."

  Dunhuang was a frontier in the era of Great Unification, and it was also an authentic frontier during the Liang Kingdom period of the Zhang clan. It can even be said to be an authentic frontline.

   Under normal circumstances, people on the border really don’t go wherever they are, and the truly honest people can hardly survive in the border. But their kind of dishonesty is definitely not derogatory, it is more sturdy than the people's style in an absolutely complete area, even if they are from a wealthy or large family, they basically can't see the shadow of pampering.

   Xie Ping is a dark-skinned middle-aged man who looks sturdy and burly. He didn't take much effort to get the answer he wanted. Xie Ai went to Yumen, which means they and Xie Ai missed it.

   There are now two places called Yumen. The full name is Yumen Pass, which is located in Dunhuang County. It is a border gate in the true sense. It is also an important border military town with Yangguan. The other Yumen is in the direction of Jinchang County near Jiuquan County, very close to the later Jiayuguan.

   Even if it is not a disaster year, quite a few areas are desolate. Most areas are either grasslands or Gobi, especially the most barren north of Yiwu. Guzang and Zhangye County will simply form a desert in modern times.

   A long, long time ago, Dunhuang County, Jiuquan County, Zhangye County, and Wuxing County were actually Hu people's territory. A tribe named Xiutu occupies this land, and their main habitat is around the Qilian Mountains.

The    Xiu Tubu was subsequently incorporated into the Xiongnu. The Qilian Mountains became the territory of the Xiongnu King Youxian, waiting for the army of the Western Han Dynasty to march here before it became Han soil.

   Xie Ai's whereabouts are so easy to find, it is his deliberate behavior. He came to the Northwest to do too much. The Northwesterners had almost no sense of belonging to the Han country, and even most of them were distrustful. Even if he was from the Northwest, the bonus points he got were quite limited, and he would definitely want more. People who cooperate with him, those who will look for him are either relatives or friends or old ones. They will be relatively trustworthy and cooperative. They are good candidates as role models.

   "Everyone, lest you miss it again. Hurry up, right?"

   Everyone naturally responded to Xie Ping’s opinions, and did not even stay in Rile, turning back to the road just before.

Rile County is not too close to Yumen County. It’s nearly 800 miles away. It takes half a month to walk on foot. That’s the reason for the flat terrain in most parts of the northwest. There are only a few Gobi areas along the way. Most are flat grasslands. As for the Eight Hundred Mile Road, it would not be too long to walk in the mountains for a few months, and it would not be too much to walk around for a year without the predecessors.

   Thanks to Pingtong, either riding a horse or riding a carriage, it took six days to get to Yumen County.

   They came to Yumen County again, but they did not enter the county seat but found that compared with the previous time, the number of people in Yumen County has increased a lot. That was the discovery of the people coming and going from the road, and there were many more camps around.

   "These camps, except for no fences and horses, look like military camps."

  , of course, is not a military camp in the true sense, but there are quite a few military officers in it. They are mainly Li Kuang. Yumen County is just a temporary stop, and the final camp is in Yangguan.

   "Huh!? That person, isn't it Xintinghou?"

   Xie Ping heard the words and saw that a group of people in front were walking, most of them were soldiers in armor. Xie Ai, who was dressed in a dominant white color costume, was crowded in the middle.

   Xie Ai has been in Yumen County for nearly half a month, mainly waiting for Li Kuang to bring people over. He has also received a lot of relatives and friends before and after, those who are located in Yumen County have responded, taking the lead in joining the many new official measures, and the young people in the camp are one of the achievements.

The Han was short of food. In fact, even if there was no shortage of food, the Northwest would not be affected by a drought. Not only did the Han country under Liu Yan’s rule, but also the previous dynasties have done the same thing, even the Qin Empire and the Xian Dynasty. The Han Dynasty did not give out food for disaster relief at all, but only opened up the mountains and rivers to let the people live by themselves.

It is precisely the example that the government did not lavish grain in the year of the disaster. Today, Han has not been criticized. The administrative documents of the central opening of mountains and rivers have been distributed to the counties and counties in the northwest, and there are also increased labor and recruitment. The method is that the increase in the number of servitudes and recruitment is only a drop in the bucket, and only then is there such a thing as encouraging private young people to join the military to seek a livelihood.

"Nephew Xie Ping, see your uncle." Xie Ping came to Xie Ai as a salute. After bending down and getting up, he said: "Nephew and the brothers, uncles and uncles in the hometown heard the news and rushed to Rile, but heard that his uncle was here. Yumen, return back again day and night."

   What I have to say is that Xie Ai really didn't know that he had a nephew like Xinping. According to the custom, you still have to verify it. For example, let Xie Ping talk about who his parents are with the above, and only if they can get the pulse relationship can be confirmed.

   This year (AD 349), Xie Ping is thirty-three years old and Xie Ai is forty-eight years old. In terms of seniority and youth, the two are really uncles and nephews. Xie Ai is the master, but Xie Ping is an offshoot outside of Wufu. Not only did they have never seen them before, apart from being able to get along with them. , The blood is very light.

Xie Ai is now in the process of employing people. There is no need to arrange any official status for Xie Ping. Even if some of the things he did mess up the relationship, the relationship is not so serious. The people who came seemed to make them think that it would be beneficial to get closer to Xie Ping.

   "My uncle has a fate, and my nephew must follow it." Xie Ping is very, very respectful: "The nephew is in the prime of life, so it should be an example. The nephew's eldest son has also given a crown and can go with him."

   Xie Ai did not use the tone of command, that is to say, the Han country now has a policy of organizing personnel to go to the Western Regions. Naturally, there is no need to clearly mention what to do, but only a hint is required. He also knew why Xie Ping behaved like that, but he didn't mind at all, and even admired Xie Ping's performance.

  Everyone who came from Dunhuang County vowed to say: "I'm waiting for the town party, Xinting Hou has orders, I must follow it!"

Xie Ai looks more satisfied~lightnovelpub.net~ It has been six years since he left his hometown. People who saw his hometown still remember that he was very happy first. He received the best cooperation and help from the people in his hometown. It's a good thing. When outsiders mention it, it's first that he doesn't fail in life. If the township party manages things beautifully, it will be a matter of honor.

   By the way, Xie Ping got married early, but the eldest son was only fifteen years old. According to the custom of the Han family, the crown ceremonies are held at the age of twenty, but that is not static. For example, if Xie Ping's family is in the frontier, people who are peacefully zoned will give the crown earlier, so that the successor will participate in family affairs earlier.

Li Kuang, who has been standing on the side, is very envious of Xie Ai’s constant visits or investment in his hometown. The first thing to do is to look at the number of friends and the number of people who are willing to help when they need help. It can be used to judge a person.

   Of course, Xie Ai is Hou Ye, and he is a successful person himself. Li Kuang also knows that it is because of such a relationship that he will be sought after by people in his hometown, but what does it matter?

   "This is Yuanting Hou." Xie Ai introduced Li Kuang to Xie Ping and said: "This time I went to the Western Regions and it was Yuanting Hou who presided over."

   I don’t have to say, not only Xie Ping immediately saluted respectfully, but everyone nearby also hurriedly saluted.

Even if the news is blocked, it is not difficult to inquire. For example, there are more than twenty marquis in Han Dynasty. As long as he is a marquis, he is definitely one of the top figures in the country. For the sake of it, let alone that after they are willing to go to the Western Regions, Li Kuang can grasp their life and future. nt
